One of the Family
When Patrick is invited by his girlfriend, Holly Grant, to join her and her family on holiday in the Scottish Highlands, he has no idea that he is about to be plunged into a nightmare of family tension, sinister behaviour . . . and a plot to murder the patriarchโs younger fiancรฉe.
Lucy Foley meets Succession in the gripping new thriller from the 5 million copy bestselling author of The Wasp Trap.
Patrick couldn't believe his luck when Holly fell for him. She's wickedly funny, beautiful, and with an intimidatingly successful father, Charles. So when she invites him to Charles' mansion for a New Year's break in Scotland, all he's hoping is that they'll accept him as one of the family.
But everything feels a little off. Whispers in hallways. Rumours of a body that got found nearby the previous year. And something very strange about Charles' new girlfriend.
Every family has secrets, and Patrick tells himself all he needs to do is survive the next few days. But then the first body is found, and Patrick realises that all he needs to do is survive the next few days...
